Ah stayed up last night watchin' 13 Assassins with Paisley n' X. Th' Extended version~

The carnage at the end was unremitting though, what was it, 45 minutes or so?
Texas Samurai

These weren't supermen, they was Samurai usin' their wits n' their blades...

Hahaha don't be like Naritsugu, who was trained in a time of peace and got so enamoured with the notion of the "beauty" of war that he wanted to bring it back.

One thing I noticed which I found odd. The samurai seeded the town with tons of swords and would switch between them rapidly as the conflict wore on. I thought there was some sacred bond between sword wielder and their weapon?

In a battle, y'gotta be flexiible in such things... Miyamoto Musashi wrote in The Book of the Five Rings: "You should not have a favorite weapon. To become over-familiar with one weapon is as much a fault as not knowing it sufficiently well. You should not copy others, but use weapons which you can handle properly. It is bad for commanders and troopers to have likes and dislikes."

It's as much about choice of personal weapon as which 'un y'use, but y'cain't afford to get stuck on just one.

Fer instance, when Ah had t' fight mah way t' New York Ah didn't just use th' sword mah master gave me, "Red Sun", but also a whole mess of other blades.

I only need my Space Sword Blaster. It;s f[BLEEP]king awesome. It can go from being a cutlass to a rapier and it can shoot energy.

I don't... I don't actually know. I always thought it was some Silver Millennium thing. I don't have all my memories of that time. I know it's also one of the three Treasures of Amaterasu.

Yeah. Because Cressida and I have "the blood of destroyers of evil" in us, we can wield them too, but it could kill us if we aren't careful.

Hey, Setsuna knows all the secrets, maybe she can explain why it's called the "Space Sword."

It is my duty to only give you just enough information to get into situations.

05/06/2018
...Actual orders, but I won't deny that given what asses you both are it's also my pleasure.
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
F[BLEEP]k off, just because I have a freewheeling lifestyle of awesome badassery doesn't mean I'm not f[BLEEP]king educated :P

Jesus. " a lone assassin fired one shot into the palanquin containing Ii, with a Japanese-made Colt 1851 Navy Revolver, which had been copied from the firearms that Commodore Matthew Perry had given the shogunate as gifts." An irony considering Ii's stance on opening Japan.

Their actions were pointless as well. " Therefore, we have consecrated ourselves to be the instruments of Heaven to punish this wicked man, and we have taken on ourselves the duty of ending a serious evil, by killing this atrocious autocrat."
// J_Daito //

Killing one man can't stop a system. Systems are like avalanches set forth by pebbles. Unless you snipe him before he starts the avalanche, you have to deal with a whole mountain of s[BLEEP]t coming at you.
Texas Samurai
05/06/2018
Th' dang article contricts you, Jed. "According to Sir Ernest Satow: "A bloody revenge was taken on the individual [Ii], but the hostility to the system only increased with time, and in the end brought about its complete ruin."
Texas Samurai

"The conflict reached its resolution with the military defeat of the Shogunate in the Boshin War, and the installation of the Meiji Restoration in 1868."

Ah reckon it's like lightin' a powderkeg. Dealin' with one evil man may not stop thing then n' there, but it lights th' fuse.
// J_Daito //
05/06/2018
I'll give you that, but the problem is too many people stop their thinking at "if we kill X, the issue will be resolved" when there's a lot more to factor for,

Dang it why's you send him away Ah wanted t' arrange another movie night. 13 Assassins was great!

We used to do reviews of awesome hong kong action movies here when I first started our blog

Ah love Japanese culture because Ah was raised an' trained by a Japanese Samurai.

The old HK cinema forums I used to discover new films are gone now, though :<

...Ah really despise th' label Weaboo. It shouldn't be wrong t'have n' express a passion fer th' things you love!
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
Well I guess it comes down to how you express it. It's like putting on kimono and geta and then runing around going "I AM JAPANESE"
Rule34Rocks
05/06/2018
No no you need to do it right, using romaji. "Atashi wa the real nihonjin desu"

Oh god don't give me a headache please. I'm actually amazed that in our many many years here we have not actually had someone here who spoke like that.

That's not even close to the worst I've seen, I have no idea why I can't find good examples right now.

"kyaaaa~!! se-senpai-chan!! *o* w-watashi wa baked you cookies!! uwu t-to…show how much i love you!! with all my kokoro, you make me go doki doki in my heart and in my–"

I'll see if I can get my hands on it and we'll have a good old-fashioned suburban senshi movie night.

05/06/2018
Seth Rollins (c) vs. The Miz for the Intercontinental Championship - I say Seth holds it for a while longer, though I want Miz to win (which I never thought I would say )
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
Jeff Hardy (c) vs. Randy Orton for the United States Championship - Jeff Hardy unless they decide to break him.
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
Nia Jax (c) vs. Alexa Bliss for the "RAW" Women's Championship - Nia, we need to have her hold it for a while, Alexa doesn't need the rub
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
And that is horrible and sexist and never says that again Elios. SHAME. Shame.
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
Carmella (c) vs. Charlotte Flair for the "SmackDown" Women's Championship - Charlotte because I can't see booking be clever enough to let Carmella hold it for a hile longer.
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
Daniel Bryan vs. Big Cass - Bryan because sorry Cass, you're gonna do this job. Bryan is too hype right now.
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
AJ Styles (c) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura for the WWE Championship I WANT Nakamura to win but I think he is better served chasing the belt as a psycho heel for now.
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
Braun Strowman and Bobby Lashley vs. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn - Owens and Zayn by a cheat after getting brutalized by Strowman.
SpeedRcr_X
05/06/2018
And it looks like the pre-show is Bayley vs. Ruby Riott... I'd say Ruby because Bailey will toughen up to win BUT Sasha will f[BLEEP]k it up somehow.

Well we'll see. At least I'm not wagering a kiss with Jerry Lawler this time <_< | |||||||
